Thor: Ragnarok's Gladiator Hulk armour revealed at Comic Con

Marvel's Hall H panel at San Diego Comic Con doesn't take place until later today, but the big reveals have already begun. A couple of months ago it was reported that Thor: Ragnarok may include some aspects of the Planet Hulk saga, and Marvel's Vice President of Digital Media Ryan Penagos looks to have confirmed that rumour by tweeting out video footage and images of the Jade Giant's gladiator armour from that hugely popular storyline.

Exactly when and why Hulk wields his armour is yet to be revealed, but its presence here could indicate that Marvel plan on offering a little more info on Thor: Ragnarok a little later today. For now, we can at least rest assured that gladiator Hulk is coming to cinemas next year, which is pretty great news.

Directed by Taika Waititi and starring Chris Hemsworth, Tom Hiddleston, Jaimie Alexander, Tessa Thompson, Jeff Goldblum, Cate Blanchett, Karl Urban, and Mark Ruffalo, Thor: Ragnarok will be released in UK cinemas on October 27, 2017 before opening in US theatres on November 3, 2017.
